 the video rebel is back with more and i've yet to read any major errors in any presentation here for the years i've been following this individual;


The Ukraine is continuing to lose both soldiers and strategic positions in the Donbass frontlines. A leak from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense a couple of months ago said 125,00 of their soldiers had died and more than twice that many had sustained serious injuries. Today on the frontlines in the Donbass they are losing a battalion a day. This past week they replaced several brigades in the Donbass that had suffered 70% casualties.

The point is that the Ukrainians are depending on 40,000 NATO forces on the frontline. Other NATO soldiers are operating HIMARS and M777s systems because the Ukrainians do not have trained soldiers to spare. Over 6 weeks ago the Washington Post interviewed Ukrainian soldiers in a hospital in Nikolayev. One man said he had been a pig farmer 2 months before and had risen to the rank of tank commander. He had injured his back when his tank was driven into a ditch. Those sorts of things do not happen when you have time to train the young men you send to war.

General Zaluzhny, head of the Ukrainian Army, said recently he needs 300 tanks and 500 artillery pieces plus ammunition. The US shut down 80,000 manufacturing plants when they passed NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) in 1993 so we cannot send more than a trickle of rockets and artillery shells. The US sent the Ukraine 17 HIMARS systems of which 6 have been taken out by Russia. The Russians will have 1,000 advanced MLRS Tornado S systems on the frontlines when the Big Push against Kiev from Belarus begins.

Remember that a HIMARS can fire only 6 rockets at a time. The Russian Tornado S system can fire 12 rockets each in 12 seconds. That is a volley of 12,000 rockets vs 66 for Ukraine’s remaining HIMARS. But the Tornado S Rockets have a 50% greater range with twice the warhead payload. Additionally, both the HIMARS and the M777 require sophisticated maintenance after firing rockets and artillery shells. This is solved by shipping them to Poland and back for repairs – a mere 1,150 kilometer round-trip........more........
